Fab Flab Fighting Raving Mad Rambler

Following the rather unsavoury comments made by one ex-old friend, the RMR began to reflect on his weight. The RMR had never really felt insecure about his size, but perhaps... ... There really was a bit too much of the RMR to love. Hence, the RMR decided to start going to... ...





Working out on the machines and running on the thread mill made the RMR feel really fabulous. So after a thoroughly satisfying workout, the Raving Mad Rambler decided to be super health conscious and wolf down a yummy healthy Subway sandwich for lunch. He thought to himself, what worked for Jared should definitely work for me. (For those of you, who have not heard the wonderful story of Jared. Get more details available after the jump http://www.subway.com/subwayroot/MenuNutrition/Jared/jaredsStory.aspx)

As the RMR drudged towards his favourite sandwich joint, he was greeted with heady & seductive aroma emanating from the Hokkien Street BAT KOOT TEH stall. (Don't ask me why its not spelt "Bah Ku Teh" like all the other stalls. Apparently, the store owner must have felt that his Bat Koot Teh was very "koot" and a league above the rest.)

Hence, the great internal battle began to rage!

VS

Sadly, when it comes to such battles in the RMR's head, there can be only one outcome... A first round knock out!!! :(

...

...

The bah koot teh was not actually really very "koot", maybe the turtle soup next time... :P

Freakonomics: Fiendishly Good Book


It is not often that the RMR reads so when he manages to finish a book in the record time of 1.5 weeks! You just have got to sit up and take note that this book is some good shit. (Not the way chinese people trying to be cool say "good shit", but the way cool Black/Jamaican People say "good shit") The book itself is basically about nothing and prides itself for having no unifying theme. However, it asks some crazy questions and comes up with some unbelievable answers. For example, How are real estates agents like the Klu Kux Klan? Why are Sumo wrestlers similar to High School Teachers? Intrigued? Buy the book or come borrow it from the RMR :)

After reading the book, the RMR has come to a startling realisation. There is a fine line between Genius and Madness. Genius naturally being Steven Levitt and Madness being the RMR.

Monday Blues

The Raving Mad Rambler (RMR) was feeling distinctly blue today. So he decided to wear a fugly blue shirt to work and announce to the world how blue he felt. Please find attached, Picture of "One Fugly blue shirt".

Sadly, no one noticed. It would have really made my day if a caring colleague had just strolled up to me and said, "Dude, that's one fugly shirt!"... Maybe the shirt ain't that fugly after all. Note to self: Find fuglier blue shirt.

The day did get better though, the RMR met an old friend for lunch.
Ah... ... Meeting someone you have not seen in a long time is such a refreshing and wonderful experience.

Old Friend : " Hi! Wow RMR! You've grown so much fatter."

RMR: "Thanks dear. You look gorgeous with your orangy brown hair. Just like a cao Ah Lian."

*Big Hug* Ahhh... .... With friends like these, who needs enemies....

P.S: Hey Mag, I don't really think you look like cao Ah Lian. But only if you don't really think, I'm fat... :)

How perverse are you? (Take the test)












See anything wrong with the book cover on the Right?

Came across this pair of book covers on http://www.boingboing.net/ . Apparently the full title of this religious book is "'After You've Blown It: Reconnecting with God and Others." The cover on the left is the re-printed cover of the book.

Don't get it? So innocent! :)

Hey kid sister! If you are reading this, COVER your eyes and rapidly exit this page!
